Kettlebells are viewed by many as the ultimate body conditioning tool. Whether you are looking to build muscle, improve core function or improve cadiovascular performance, few exercises can match it. Its ability to accelerate metabolism is huge and hence a key exercise if one of your goals is weight loss. It is a superb exercise for women as weight loss and muscle tone can be acheived without excessive increases in muscle mass. Many people who suffer from back problems find great benefit in improving the strength of the posterior kinetic chain (back, gluteus, hamstrings).

I've been training with kettlebells since early 2009 and they are now an essential part of my preparation for competing in triathlons. After having used them with a number of my clients I have found that they are one of the most versitile training tools around. Workouts are fun, challenge you physically as well as propriceptively and can be adapted to facilitate most training requirements. Nearly all exercises involve multiple muscle groups working together, therefore workouts can be shorter and yet still more effective than most conventional cardio or weight training routines - more muscles firing means more calories burned.

So whether you are a top level athlete looking to improve your performance, someone who needs to improve core function, or you are just trying to lose some weight and tone up for the summer, kettlebell training may well be the solution for you. Although exercises will vary, typically my clients will have two one hour sessions a week. Once the exercise techniques have become familiar, this is normally achieved by the second or third session, each session will involve short circuits broken by active rest intervals. As your fitness and strength improve and your technical ability advances, routines and exercises will become progressively more challenging ensuring you never plateau. 

If you wish to arrange a free consultation please contact me and I can assess your needs and recommend a training package specific to you. As to where and when you wish to be trained, that will be up to you. I can come to your house or we can meet somewhere mutually convenient. The majority of my sessions are either held outside or at the client's house. Call 07815813503 or send an email via the contact page.
